First time i have had hobs and was wondering if there was any problems keeping them together? i.e Fighting! Play it by ear ,they could scrap once they come into season next year or they may just settle & not play up,just seperate them if they become really aggressive , i have managed to keep my brothers together this year , but theres a jill kit in with them now soo that may change the min she comes into season , she wil lbe removed Quote Link to post
smudgersmith 2 Posted September 11, 2007 Report Share Posted September 11, 2007 Just got 2 Hob kits (Brothers) there about 12weeks old now. First time i have had hobs and was wondering if there was any problems keeping them together? i.e Fighting! I kept two hob brothers together for over 3 years, I had no problem what so ever until I used one to cover a jill which came into season long after the other jills had, my Hoblet was with a friend doing his business. After my hob was returned to his brother ( I kept the hob away from his brother for 2 further days, thinking the jills scent would still be on him. ) they did nothing but fight. The Hob that got his end away become more aggressive and dominant. In the end I had to seperate them which was a real shame as they worked really well together. Quote Link to post

I was worried since moving the kit jill in with the two entire hobs that they may become aggressive next yr , i think i will remove her at christmas just incase, tey get on really well ATM so i dont want to spoil it Quote Link to post
